Farmhouse Retreat

Howell was excited to receive the electrical scope for this indoor/outdoor ‘Farmhouse Retreat’. The indoor pool area is lit up with beautiful architectural lighting above the ceiling beams, around the pool bar, and throughout the space. A Sonos sound system was installed throughout the home for optimal sound quality. The electrical install included the main living space, a guest house, green house, HVAC system, geothermal system, and exterior lighting including a light pole. Thank you to our client for allowing us to be apart of this spectacular build.
